Day 11

We got up early to drive to Monkey Mia to feed the Dolphins. I even got to feed one of the dolphins. Here are some of the Pics I took.

The Animals take over

We have had a heap of animals around in the last few days. I am not sure whether it is because it has been getting hotter. I went out to put the rubbish in the bin(who says I never do that lol)

I got quiet a shock when I saw the little Roo, not that it scared me, just that I wasn't expecting to see it lol.
Here are millions of ?Ibis' that descended on to the condo lawn, there must have either been lots of bugs in the ground or possibly the sprinklers had been on and there was water... I have never seen so many there before.

Under Attack (Relocated)

The other day I heard the birds going off, so I went out to see what was the matter. This poor little blighter was under fire from the maggies and the butcher birds. I went out to protect him, while we walked together he was safe, but as soon as he went outside the yard back in to the birds territory he was fair game.



This photo was taken just milliseconds before that bird struck the goanna on the head. It made a sickening noise! The birds continued to follow him till he got to the trees... No doubt to raid a nest... The cycle continues.. lol

Nature at Haycock

Recently I was at the South East Coast of NSW, these are a couple of pics I took at Haycock Point, which is now a national park, but in the 1860's and earlier, it belonged to one of my ancestors. Will blog more later...

Visiting Friends

Goanna looking for bird eggs.
I live in Outback NSW, I have a lot of 'friends' dropping in to say G'day. I shall post some more visitors another day.

A friendly shingle-back lizard who stopped by our house for a much needed drink. One of our pipes was leaking and there was a large puddle on the ground, this gal stayed and drank for about 15 minutes.
